ford 600
have a ford 600, it has wheel weights, calcium in the wheels, and a bucket on it.
I'm in the market for a trailer and I'm not really sure how much it weighs. And going from 7000lb gross to 10000. Not sure if I'll get away with the 7000 gross if the tractor weighs over 5000lbs.
Im a total noob, so any help would be apreciated.

The 66 inch FEL on my tractor is about 1100 lbs and the beat juice in my large rear R4 tires is about 1200 lbs. If you have Ags for rears I would estimate about 700 lbs for them and your FEL is probably a tad lighter or about the same as mine. I would say that these items would add 1500 - 2000 lbs to your tractor and say you should plan for a total weight of about 5000 - 5500 lbs with fuel and other fluids in the tractor.

I have a comparable tractor with a FEL and fluid in the rears. It weighs 5,200# with nothing on the 3 point.
